It would be nice if I had an option to make quotes appear in their collapsed form for all posts by default.

For example, in this quoted picture thread, if you click the Quote link on top of the picture, it hides the quoted portion of the post. I would prefer it the other way around, where I have to click the Quote link to see the quote. It would make the thread load much faster and result in less scrolling, especially for large picture quotes where the quoter is just posting a one-line comment.
